Srixon W-506

published 29 September 2005

Srixon W-506 RRP £179(g)

DESIGN

This is a good looking club but some people might find the glittery paint job on the head a little off-putting.

TEC TALK

The W-506 is designed with neutral face angles and a face depth that should appeal to golfers of all standards. The head is designed to deform slightly at impact, allowing the ball to remain in contact a fraction longer generating a distance-enhancing high launch, low spin recipe.

PERFORMANCE

The W-506 offers good balance and feel and it's extremely forgiving on off-centre strikes.

TOTAL GOLF VERDICT

An excellent contender at a reasonable price. It's very long and solid, but its slightly shallower face demands a little more care and attention over teeing height
